The Logic Editor
The Logic editor will appear in a few places in the Application. It is used on Sections and Fields to determine their visibility, or in Widgets and Reports to filter for only the Profiles you require.
Wherever you see something similar to the above, you can start adding one or more conditions.
What is a Condition?
A condition is simply a small test that produces a true or false (yes or no) result. It is typically made up of 3 parts. There is the item you are evaluating (normally a field), the type of comparison and the value to compare against. Sometimes the value to compare against may not be required as it can be assumed.
Here are some examples of conditions you might set. In all these cases you see the item is in quotation marks, the comparison type is in italics, and the value is in bold:
Show Profiles where the "Start Date" is next week
Show Profiles where the "Start Date" is exactly or later than 01/01/23
Show Profiles where the "Postcode" contains BH15
Show Profiles where the "Are Checks Required?" toggle field is selected
The end result will look similar to one of the screenshots below.
Adding Multiple Conditions
You can add multiple conditions by pressing the + And button. This will create an And condition which means that both of these conditions need to be satisfied.
In the below example, the custom 'Visa or Temporary Work Permit Held?' toggle field must be selected, and the 'Start Date' must be exactly or earlier than 1 year ago
This would then show all staff that meet both conditions.
Adding an Alternative Condition
You can add alternative conditions by pressing the + Or button. This will create an Or condition which means that one or the other of these conditions needs to be satisfied.
In the below example, the 'Position Held' field must contain either Manager or Leader
